Seriously? OK the Cadillac family is now taking offers to guarantee your song will be the last man standing.
And I don't want no grave
Just throw my ashes in the field
And hope there's some soul left to save

I wasn't sure whether to make it one vote per Medusan per day or to change it to one vote per family per day.

This sounds very Mafia-ish (Sonny Corleone) Aw, you're telling me that the Tattaglias guarantee our investment?

Maybe the Cadillac family is one of the Five Families of South Dakota!

FYI. The count is off. 119. I blame MacRua.

I think aljaM managed to knock votes off both Billy's Bones and Gentleman Soldier. As Gentleman Soldier was marked in red, let's assume a minus vote for that was what was intended, and so restore one vote to Billy.

This has been my favourite ever album, pretty much always since the day it was released. So it's hard. But today it goes like this:

Having wasted votes in the RRFM game by voting for whatever song I felt like on any given day in the early stages rather than just voting for the best song, I am not making the same mistake again. The soulfinger block vote will be for sickbed.

I would also like to point out that Soulfinger Jr's one vote in the RRFM game was meant to be ironic. I am rising above the temptation to involve him on a paid basis in this game. :roll:

Yes, it was me. I always manage to mess up something at the beginning of the game, I did it with Red Roses as well... :oops: Sorry...
